Please help finding compatible ram for my Samsung Laptop

[mudassar788]

Hello,

I have Samsung Ativ Book 8, model number is NP780Z5E-S01UB.

It came with 4gb on board & 2gb changeable ram (total 6gb). However, 6gb is quite low for me. I am thinking to replace 2gb stick with 8gb. Here is the screenshot of ram which is previously installed in my laptop.

One of my online friend suggested me G.Skill ram (link below) & he told me that it will work perfect with my laptop, but I am bit confused as my existing ram is PC3-10600S while recommended one is PC3L-12800

(Currently out of stock, but I find similar on different vendors)

Now, can anyone please suggest me some proper compatible ram with my laptop? I am bit worried because I will not be able to return once received.

Waiting for some suggestions.

Thanks

Thanks bro, Crucial is recommending
DDR3 PC3-12800 • CL=11 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1600 • 1.35V • 1024Meg x 64
&
DDR3 PC3-14900 • 10-10-10-30 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1866 • 1.35V • 1024Meg x 64

So, it means that any ram will work with my laptop, 10600S or 12800 or 14900?

I would stick with what Samsung recommends although the faster RAM will probably work, I doubt you would notice much difference.

Yes, I am not focusing on speed. I am just looking for a compatible ram. I couldn't find any 10600S ram. Can you recommend any from newegg, amazon etc?

Thank you

If your current stick of RAM is 10600, I would replace it with this:
